The End of the Day

By: Claire North

Narrated by: Peter Kenny

Charlie meets everyone - but only once. You might meet him in a hospital, in a war zone, or at the scene of traffic accident. Then again, you might meet him at the North Pole - Charlie gets everywhere. Sometimes he is sent as a courtesy, sometimes as a warning. Either way, this is going to be the most important meeting of your life.

The End of the Day is the stunning new story from Richard and Judy Book Club author Claire North: the voice behind the word-of-mouth best-seller The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August.

Don’t bother

I listened to the entire book and it was an endless explanation of what the author thought death was. If you want to read a book and be bored to death this is it.

There is no story here

Monday, September 16, 2019:
I am half way through the book, and IF I manage to finish it, I will update this review.

Until now, though....

This is nothing. Read the blurb again, and tell me if you find even a hint of a story. Don't bother, you can't. There is none. I am on chapter 63 now, and nothing has happened other than Charlie running around visiting people about to die.., and we've only witnessed one actual death.

This is just a dull travelogue. There is nothing here.

I LOVED her other book 'The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August'. I keep recommending that one to everyone.
I cannot recommend this book, however. I cannot imagine it getting good enough at the end to recommend at all.

This book is boring me to death.
